Archbishop Hanna: Israel takes revenge on Syria for its support of Palestine

Sofia, SANA – Greek Orthodox Archbishop of Sebastia Atallah Hanna condemned the recent Israeli aggression against Syria two days ago, considering that what Israel has done and the takfiri terrorists’ acts fall within the same scope of taking revenge on Syria because of its principled stances in support of the Palestinian cause.

Archbishop Hanna visited the Syrian Embassy in the Bulgarian capital, Sofia, and expressed condolences to the families of Syria’s martyrs.

Hanna stressed that all Israeli and colonialist plans to destroy Syria’s national unity and coexistence in order to fragment the Arab societies and spread sectarian strife have been foiled thanks to the wise leadership of President Bashar al-Assad.

He highlighted the sacrifices of the Syrian army in its war to defend Syria and the Arab Nation against the terrorists, whishing that next year will bring peace and amity to all people and countries.

In turn, Syria’s Ambassador to Bulgaria, Nadra Sayaf, appreciated Archbishop Hanna’s national stances and struggle to support the Palestinian cause and Syria’s people and army in the face of terrorism and the international conspiracy.
